Lu Fan

Lu Fan (died 228) was a minister of Wu during the Three Kingdoms era. He was originally a staff officer of Yuan Shu, but he gave up and joined Sun Ce instead. After the Battle of Chibi, he acted as envoy to Liu Bei in the arrangement of Liu Bei's wedding to Sun Quan's younger sister Sun Shangxiang and tried to kill Liu Bei. However, he was stopped and harshly criticized for this by the Wu empress, who had taken a liking to Liu Bei. He foretold victory during the campaign against Guan Yu in 219, and, in 222 AD, during Cao Pi's invasion into Wu, he defeated Cao Xiu's army.
